    Incredibly fired up to say that I’ve accepted a job with the Minnesota Twins as a Minor League Pitching Coach in the DR! Thank you to the staff and athletes at Ascent Athlete for the trust they placed in me, and for relationships that will last a lifetime! Cant wait to get going!

    113mph/36 degrees, 512 feet. Notice the dent on the brand new scoreboard to the right of the home team’s name card. Don’t sleep on the Gamecocks this year. @andreweyster7

    Today, after almost a full year, I get to wake up and go to Founders Park for a baseball game. And that is a blessing I won’t ever take for granted again

    Struggling to feel your lead leg block? Here’s a progression we put @danhammer8 through today to help feel out proper front leg timing. (🧵) Start with uphill plyos! Dan threw each of his 4 plyo drills up the mound to start his day, adding in a hurdle for extra spacial awareness

    Missing baseball in general, but more specifically near-perfect 4 seam bullets from @Thomas_Farr01 on the edgertronic. @PitchingNinja

    Fun fact: I held it together pretty well on the day our season got cancelled until Big G looked at me and said “I guess this is it huh.” It’s been a hell of a 4 years with this guy, and I’m so proud to call you one of my best friends! Love you paw

    By far the best 4 years of my life! Thank you to the coaching staff and support staff, especially @RyanFischerSC and Tyson Lusk for welcoming me in with open arms, and giving me an opportunity to grow into the person I am today!

    Mlodzinski vs. Hancock, first pitch 10 mins from now. Gamecocks sporting the classic Yankee Gray’s. Managers looking sharp as usual.

    Day 11 of no baseball: put 3 chairs on the right side of the yard and had my mom roll a ball to the left just so I could watch my shift get beat one last time
